Download or read book Nudist Cruise written by Hailey Mcpherson and published by . This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when a shy young woman who was always taught to be ashamed of her body finds herself on a cruise ship with 2,000 nudists enjoying the sun and water and letting it all hang out? An excerpt: The people on that cruise have the ability to see nudity in a naturally innocent way – the way most children do before we're all told that nude is lewd. As a dancer, I can relate to that. I think we're all natural born dancers, but at some point in our childhood we're told to grow up and stop moving with natural joy. Most people forget how to dance and even professional dancers have to be trained all over again. We talked and laughed, swam and played games – all completely naked. None of them noticed all the flaws I see in my body and no one laughed at anybody for being imperfect. When everybody's naked, no one cares about perfection. People who don't know anything about nudism like to say that the people you see at a nude beach are the people you don't want to see naked. What they'll never get – and it took me a while to figure out – is that nudists don't get nude to show off their imperfect bodies. They are not exhibitionists and they don't like voyeurs. You are always welcome to join them, but they're not interested in being stared at. Something I figured out that the gymnophobes will never know is that the people you see nude are exactly the people you want to see naked. Instead of surgically enhanced bodies that conform to whatever this year's definition of perfection is, they have natural, human bodies. I was on a ship with 2,000 nudists. All of them were beautiful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A delightful and informative look at nudism throughout history and around the world.” —The Seattle Times People have been getting naked in public for reasons other than sex for centuries. But as Mark Haskell Smith reveals, being a nudist is more complicated than simply dropping trou. “Nonsexual social nudism,” as it’s called, rose to prominence in the late nineteenth century. Intellectuals, outcasts, and health nuts from Victorian England and colonial India to Belle Époque France and Gilded Age Manhattan disrobed and wrote manifestos about the joys of going clothing-free. From stories of ancient Greek athletes slathered in olive oil to the millions of Germans who fled the cities for a naked frolic during the Weimar Republic to American soldiers given “naturist” magazines by the Pentagon in the interest of preventing sexually transmitted diseases, this book uncovers nudism’s amusing and provocative past. Coated in multiple layers of high SPF sunblock, Haskell Smith publicly disrobes for the first time in Palm Springs; observes the culture of family nudism in a clothing-free Spanish town; and travels to the largest nudist resort in the world, a hedonist’s paradise in the south of France. He reports on San Francisco’s controversial ban on public nudity, participates in a week of naked hiking in the Austrian Alps, and caps off his adventures with a week on a Caribbean cruise known as the Big Nude Boat. Equal parts cultural history and gonzo participatory journalism, Naked at Lunch is “an absolute hoot” (Los Angeles Magazine) and “a total joy” (Meghan Daum). “Smith puts on his reporter’s hat and takes off everything else as he explores the history and sociology of nudism.” —Los Angeles Times

Download or read book Beyond the Wheelchair written by Gail Sanfilippo and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-12-27 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first three years of my existence were a nightmare for both my parents and myself. Between the nonstop crying in which went on daily because I couldnt feed on a bottle due my inability to suck because of having Cerebral Palsy and the weekly hospital visits to Childrens and Massachusetts General in Boston, took a toll on the three of us. Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a brain injury either due prior or at birth. Its causes may be due to alcohol substance during pregnancy or at birth upon delivery. The second case was my destiny when a doctor did not wait for me to turn around in my mothers womb and pulled me out by forceps. Cerebral Palsy can cause retardation, the inability to work limbs properly or communication problems. The greatest fights I had in my life were getting the proper education and working toward my indecency. Between my experience of being sent away at the young age of eight and a half to this completely isolated institution called Crotched Mountain and not being able to come home every weekend, I was devastated. I thought I was being punished for a crime I didnt do. I can still see in the back of my mind the cold dormitories and windows which had no curtains. High school was another issue where I literally fought to get accepted. College was another situation where some professors told me point blankly that they didnt want me in their class. My most emotional times in life were when my Father died and relying on my Attendants to help me live independently. My whole existence came stumbling down in months. One was stealing. Others were lying. Even some didnt show up for work leaving me for dead. My trips with the Cerebral Palsy Group of Greater Boston began my intense interest for travel by the age of fourteen when a group of us went to Florida. Since then I have taken trips throughout the United States, the Caribbean and Europe. I even had a chance to go on The Lord Nelson Vessel, solely designed for handicapped travelers, and . . . . . . .
